Who wants to join me for a cleaning game this morning?

I'm in a couple groups related to cleaning but it never seems like people want to actually be social in the groups, which is what I thought the point of them was for. WHy get online on CafeMom just to post your list and then disappear?
I was hoping I could find someone to play some timed games with me.

We'll set our timers for 10 minutes or less and then run and do something on our list!

Okay, reporting back...cleaned up the breakfast dishes. Washed the kitchen table and wiped down the bathroom. I also was interrupted a couple of time by my 5 month old baby girl. I actually had fun with it...trying to get in as much as I could. I also found I got more done because while doing one chore I was thinking on the next thing I could do!!! Great idea!!!

Ok, in 10 minutes I decluttered the sink and vanity, did up the bathroom trash, swept the floor, and put the baking soda and vinegar on the tub, toilet and sink to soak for a few. Not much accomplished!

ok. i'm back!
whew! I made my bed up first. Then I sorted two baskets of laundry out onto the bed. I had to do a little bit of folding because of them getting wadded up. I Filled up the washing machine with the dirty clothes that I picked out/up and started it. I was pouring the detergent in as the timer went off.
Now I'm sitting down for a little rest with my 10 1/2 month old and sipping on some OJ. I'd have been done typing this earlier but my baby keeps pounding8 on the keyboard lol

Good job girls! It makes it fun, especially if you listen to music. i didn't this time around but a while back I made up a playlist on my iphone of cleaning songs that are upbeat and fun.
I think we all got a good amount done. A little break and ten minutes more and we've done 20 minutes of pretty vigorous cleaning!
